ABC Australian Story-Getting Away with Murder - Click the picture below
On a cold blustery winter's night in 1975 madam Shirley Finn is invited to dress in her finest ball gown for a very special occasion.
A kind of public execution - her own. The politicians and senior police who knew her breathed a sigh of relief. Her murder remains unsolved. Western Australia's dirtiest little secret. Following a 15-year- investigation by author and journalist Juliet Wills, most of the original players; senior police, brothel madams, lawyers, politicians, gambling lords, witnesses, friends and family tell their side of this disturbing true story. The layers of secrecy that have cloaked those behind the 1975 murder of Shirley Finn for 40 years are to be peeled back. The WA coroner has announced an inquest will be held on 11 September 2017. The inquest is ongoing and expected to go into 2019. |
Dirty Girl is a mesmerising read, the truth being more outrageously evil than any fiction.
